Instructions

  1. Small dscf1282 1286717797

    Cut out all the peices (3 pointy yellow, 3 ovals cream) Also (optional) cute a pink mouth, brown trianges for the stem, and black eyes.

  2. Small dscf1290 1286716698

    On one peice of cream, Sew pink mouth peice on (or embroider it) And sew or embroider the eyes. Some face ideas are :D >.< :o XP To sew round eyes, make an X on the area that you are making the eye, then sew in between it to make a sort of circle and fill it in.

  3. Small dscf1292 1286716742

    Take 2 peices of the cream felt ovals and turn the good side in towards eachother. Pin them together and start sewing from the top with white embroidery floss. Sew down the side until you are about 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the bottom. Stop and tie it off.

  4. Small dscf1294 1286717032

    This part is hard to explain, so look at the picture. Pin the 3rd ovals edge to another ovals edge. Sew from the top to about 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the bottom, same as the last step. Tie it off.

  5. Small dscf1296 1286717827

    Now take the last two open edges and sew along them until your 1 1/2 to 2 inches from bottom, tie off.

  6. Small dscf1298 1286717876

    Turn the banana inside out. Cute, huh?

  7. Small dscf1300 1286717902

    Stuff it, then sew closed the bottom. Befor you totally sew it closed, put more stuffing in the bottom. Set it the finished banana aside.

  8. Small dscf1302 1286717951

    OPTIONAL: Sew the brown triangles to the tips of the yellow (stem) with brown thread.

  9. Small dscf1304 1286718201

    Make a mark with a marker at the half way mark of each yellow peice. Then sew similarily to the banana, but just up to the mark. Sew it with the good sides facing eachother

  10. Small dscf1306 1286718257

    The peel inside out.

  11. Small dscf1313

    Turn the peel the right way. Put some cotton in the bottom of it, then squish the banana in. Ta da! =)
